Conversion of Elbnrly Bond.
A Chicago paper says:
Thoro In coiiHidttraV.e concorn over
tho failure , of holders of tho 4 por
cent Hborty bonds to convert tholr
holding Into tho" Hi, and the bond
department of the Federal Reserve
Bank of ChicaRo Ib plunnlng a cam
paign of publicity lto awaken bond
holders to their opportunity.
Up to last night but HG,4G2,ii60'
of tho 4 per cent IhmkIh outfttaiidlng In
this district had boon exchanged for
tho 414 issuo. AftaliiHt this thore Is i
outstanding 1027,479,3150 In bonds of
tho socond 1 por cent loanB, and $79,
GG0.900 of tho third 4h. Tho latter
figure represents bonds of tho first
3 por cent -loan reconverted to tho
second 4 per cent Ibhus.
In other words, conversions to date
amount to only about 19 por cont of
tho total conversions that Hhould bo
mndo boforo Nov. 9, when tho conver
sion prlvilogo ends.
Whilo thoro Is no Inducement for
ownors ot tho 3Vjb to convort to
4148, thoro Is ovory advantage for
holders of tho 4s to convort to 4ViS.
It Is woll for holders of tho 4s to
roin ember that by reason ot tho ter
mination of tho conversion prlvilogo
Nov, 9 next tholr bonds will suffor
a markot,doproclation compared with
tho I'is.
At proaont tho price of tho 4s Is
about on a parity with tho 4'4, bo
causo they possess potentially the
tmmo Intorost rato. But If not con
verted, tholr market prlco wilt be
come adjusted to tho I por cont rato.

Ono Wonderful Achievement.
Sixteen hundrod thousand Ameri
can soldlors are now serving with tho
colors on foreign soil. Just what Is
actually Involved In this simple an
nouncement by tho chlot of staff of
our armTV difficult to explain. It Is
a wondorM ttchlovomont. convposod
of a number of separate but correlat
ed achievements, oach In ltsolf a won

fourteen months ago, six or sovon
years would havo boon consumed In
getting tho forco wo now have In
Franco to tho scone of Its sorvlco.
Six months ago wo woro told we
would soon havo half a million mon
under arms In Europe. This so cheer
ed the Huns that tho groat March
drlvo was sot In motion that victory
might bo secured before enough
Americans to turn the tide might bo
Inndtyl, Illndonburg's campaign wns
wrfir planned, but ho underestimated
our capacity for hurrying up. In ono
month alnce then 285.000 soldlors
havo boon, dollvored In Franco.' In
Augi'wt moro than 200,000 woro sont
across. That means thnt hi those two
months nmro American troops havo
lsnild In Franco than we sont thoro
